Apple’s F1 movie tops $600m at worldwide box office, surpassing all expectations

Apple’s big box office bet continues to break records for the company, with F1: The Movie now breaking another milestone this weekend, topping $600 million at the worldwide box office. This figure beats even the most optimistic expectations ahead of release, which cost Apple about $250 million to make. The film hit buy or rent video on demand on Friday, but a streaming date on Apple TV+ has not yet been announced. In the film, Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt) comes out of retirement to help mentor an u

Rumor: Apple testing iPhone 4-like Bumper case for iPhone 17 Air

Screenshot Apple is expected to launch a new flavor of its Smart Battery Case alongside the ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air next month. As it turns out, that’s not the only forgotten iPhone case the company has up its sleeve. Mark Gurman reports that Apple has “at least considered/tested” a case for the iPhone 17 Air that “surrounds the edges but doesn’t cover the back.” If that sounds familiar, it’s because Apple offered a Bumper case exactly like that for the iPhone 4 in 2010. You might even remem

The best air purifier for 2025

The air in our homes can be five times more polluted than outdoor air. Energy-efficient homes are designed to be tightly sealed, too, so they trap more pollutants inside. Cooking emissions, cleaning chemicals and fragrances all contribute to less-than-healthy air. Pets, smoke and off-gassing furniture do their part as well. If the air quality outside is good, the best thing to do is open up your windows for at least 15 minutes a day. But if wildfires, car pollution, or high pollen counts prevent

iPhone 17 Launch: Everything We Expect to Be Announced at Apple's September Event

There is nothing in this world that is certain, except for death, taxes and the reveal of a new iPhone every year.

Not just phones and TVs: Samsung is bringing 7 years of updates to more devices

Jonathan Feist / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has announced that it’s bringing One UI and seven years of updates to its smart appliances. One UI on these appliances will bring a design in line with mobile devices, along with Now Brief and other features. Meanwhile, the update policy applies to Wi-Fi-enabled appliances launched in 2024 or later.

Apple’s refurbished store might seem like a good deal, but is that actually the case?

Apple has long offered a refurbished store on its website, where it sells recent generation products at a pretty sizable discount. Unlike other refurbished offerings, Apple guarantees a replaced outer shell, battery, and glass – ensuring no wear and tear. You also get a 1 year Apple warranty and the ability to add AppleCare if you’d like. That sounds great, but is it actually worth it? Well, it depends. We’ll be delving into Apple refurbished listings, and comparing it to other offerings on the

AirPods Max in 2025? Same drawbacks, now ready for pros, and one killer feature

Jason Hiner/ZDNET Key takeaways The ability to switch quickly and seamlessly across an unlimited number of Apple devices is still the best feature of the AirPods Max. The low-latency upgrade in iOS 18.4 makes the AirPods Max a lot more viable for professional multimedia producers (and gamers) when using a wired connection. Comfort, battery life, and audio quality match high-end competitors from Sony, Bose, and others. Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. Even with their im

Y Combinator files brief supporting Epic Games, says store fees stifle startups

Startup accelerator and venture capital firm Y Combinator (YC) today filed an amicus brief supporting Epic Games in Epic's continued legal fight with Apple. Y Combinator says that Apple's "anti-steering restraints" have long inhibited the growth and development of technology companies that monetize goods and services through apps. The company calls on the court to deny Apple's appeal and uphold the order that required Apple to change its App Store linking rules in the United States. Back in

Iterative DFS with stack-based graph traversal (2024)

Depth-first search (DFS) on a graph (binary tree or otherwise) is most often implemented recursively, but there are occasions where it may be desirable to consider an iterative approach instead. Such as when we may be worried about overflowing the call stack. In such cases it makes sense to rely on implementing DFS with our own stack instead of relying on our program's implicit call stack. But doing so can lead to some problems if we are not careful. Specifically, as noted in another blog post,

Everything I know about good API design

Most of what modern software engineers do involves APIs: public interfaces for communicating with a program, like this one from Twilio. I’ve spent a lot of time working with APIs, both building and using them. I’ve written public APIs for third-party developers, private APIs for internal use (or consumption by a single frontend page), REST and GraphQL APIs, and even non-network interfaces like the ones for command-line tools. Like designing good software systems, I think much of the advice floa

Apple Sues Chinese Phonemaker Oppo For Alleged Trade Secrets Theft

Apple is suing Chinese consumer electronics company Oppo for poaching a member of the Cupertino giant’s Apple Watch team to allegedly steal trade secrets. Apple, represented by lawyers from Kirkland & Ellis, is bringing the lawsuit against the company’s former sensor system architect Dr. Cheng Shi, and his new employers China-based Oppo and California-based Innopeak.

You might get a secret discount offer when you go to cancel Apple TV+

Apple TV+ just announced a 30% price rise, which may convince some subscribers to cancel and churn out for a while. However, the company seems to be prepared to mitigate for that somewhat. Users on Reddit discovered that when they went to cancel their subscription in the Apple TV app, they were presented with a 54% discount offer for two months. This limited time offer brings the price down from $12.99 to $5.99. After the two months price reduction, the subscription would return to the standar

Foldable iPhone coming next year to feature four cameras, Touch ID, Apple cellular modem

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman spilled some more details about the upcoming foldable iPhone in his Power On newsletter today. He says the foldable iPhone will open like a book to reveal a larger inner display, like many Android foldables. The foldable iPhone will feature a total of four cameras, one on the front screen, one on the inside and two on the back. It will also use Touch ID for biometrics and use Apple’s in-house cellular modem for connectivity. The inclusion of four cameras supports the mu

You likely shouldn’t hold your breath for a new pair of AirPods Max: report

AirPods Max have had a bit of a disappointing history. After much anticipation, they finally released at the tail end of 2020. Some fans were disappointed with the high price tag and rather heavy aluminum and steel design, and have been looking forward to a revamp ever since. Despite being refreshed last year, it was merely just a USB-C port swap and new colors. The headphones still lack in features compared to Apple’s newer AirPods Pro 2, and that likely won’t be changing. Per Mark Gurman’s P

Can't Get Your Baby to Calm Down? Try This Hidden iPhone Feature

Comforting a crying baby can be difficult, especially if you aren't getting enough sleep. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, playing calming sounds via a white noise machine can help soothe your baby and get them to settle down -- and give you a moment of respite. But instead of buying a white noise machine, you could save money and use your iPhone instead. When Apple released iOS 15 in 2021, the operating system brought a hidden feature to your iPhone called Background Sounds. It
